What slows service businesses down
The problems, and how Quotup handles them
Quotes go out days after the visit
You're booked solid, so the quote waits until the weekend, and the customer has already said yes to someone else.
With Quotup: Write it on your phone in the truck with your saved services and prices. Most quotes take a couple of minutes.
Customers say yes, then forget to pay
Chasing payments by text is awkward and it eats your evenings.
With Quotup: Customers pay online by card or bank from the invoice link. Unpaid invoices get polite reminders before and after the due date, automatically.
The same invoice, every month, by hand
Regular customers are the best kind, until you're rebuilding their invoice on the first of every month.
With Quotup: Set up a recurring invoice once, weekly, monthly, quarterly or yearly, and Quotup sends it for you.
Quotes nobody answers
Not hearing back usually means they got busy, not that they said no.
With Quotup: Quotup follows up after 3 and 7 days, so a quiet quote gets a second chance without you remembering to ask.
A worked example
Example: from a site visit to a monthly plan
A property care company visits a homeowner in March and turns it into a season of monthly maintenance, billed without anyone touching it again.
- 1
After the walkthrough, quote the spring cleanup, mulch and the monthly maintenance plan from your saved services.
- 2
The homeowner approves and signs from their phone that evening.
- 3
Convert the quote to an invoice for the cleanup and mulch. They pay by card.
- 4
Set up a monthly recurring invoice for maintenance, starting in April and ending in November, sent automatically.
- 5
If a month goes unpaid, reminders go out automatically at 7, 14 and 30 days late.

Yes. Recurring invoices go out weekly, monthly, quarterly or yearly. You can set an end date, and overdue ones get automatic reminders.

Yes, on the Pro plan. Every account also gets its own web address, like yourcompany.quotup.com.
